Malaga, Spain

Start the day with a generous buffet breakfast featuring continental classics, hot dishes and Andalusian touches – ideal fuel before a morning of sightseeing. Later, the hotel’s restaurant and bar provide a convenient option for relaxed dinners and nightcaps, with regional wines and tapas-style plates that nod to Malaga’s food scene. Step outside and you’ll find a wide choice of local tapas bars, seafood joints and contemporary restaurants within a few minutes’ walk if you prefer to dine around the city. What All Inclusive typically includes.

Make a beeline for the rooftop when the sun is shining: NH Malaga’s outdoor pool (typically open June to September) is the ideal spot to cool off between city explorations. Take a dip, then stretch out on a lounger on the terrace and soak up views of Malaga’s rooftops and church towers. For a change of scene, wander down to the seafront – Playa de la Malagueta and neighbouring beaches provide soft sand, chiringuitos and plenty of space for a quick swim in the Mediterranean.

While NH Malaga is primarily a city hotel rather than a full-scale resort, you can expect well-thought-out amenities that make short breaks simple. There’s a contemporary lobby lounge for informal meetings or planning your day, plus on-site conference and event spaces if you’re combining business and leisure. You’ll also find 24-hour reception, luggage storage and concierge-style assistance to help with taxis, restaurant suggestions and local tips on everything from museums to the best flamenco spots. Facilities and services may vary seasonally.

Double or Twin Room for Sole Use
Ideal for solo travellers, these rooms typically offer a comfortable double bed or two twins, contemporary décor, desk space and an en-suite bathroom with shower or bath. Expect air-conditioning, Wi-Fi and a flatscreen TV, plus practical touches like a safe and hairdryer (facilities can vary by room).

Superior Double or Twin Room for Sole Use
A step up in space or outlook, Superior rooms for Sole Use are well-suited to longer city stays, pairing sleek, modern styling with extra comfort. You’ll usually find a larger floorplan, enhanced amenities and a welcoming seating or work area.

Double or Twin Room
Designed for two guests, these rooms are a great base for couples or friends exploring Malaga. Modern furnishings, neutral tones and good soundproofing create a calm retreat from the city buzz, with all the essentials you’d expect from a four-star city hotel.

Offering a little more room to spread out, Superior Doubles typically feature upgraded textiles, extra seating and in some cases a better view. They’re a comfortable choice if you value a bit more space without moving up to a suite.

Suite
Suites are the hotel’s most spacious category, usually with a separate living area or open-plan lounge-style seating. They work well if you’re planning a special occasion or simply want more room to unwind between museum visits and beach walks.

Standard Junior Suite
Junior Suites provide added comfort with more generous floor space and a defined sitting zone, often with a sofa or armchair. They suit couples who like to relax in-room with a glass of wine before heading out for tapas.

Standard Family Room
Standard Family rooms are configured to welcome small families or those who appreciate a bit of extra flexibility. Bedding typically includes a double or twin set-up plus additional sleeping options for children, with modern, neutral styling that feels relaxed and unfussy.
